Helen and family, we are sad to hear about Hugh but our thoughts and prayers are with you. Becoming friends with y'all thru GWRRA enriched our lives. Hugh was such a welcoming person. Always with a smile and a hug. We have missed seeing y'all but will never forget the fun times together.

Hugh was a heck of a Gold Wing rider and a Southern Gentleman. My condolences to Helen and the Family.
